Building values in our youth to be good,
responsible citizens.
The purpose of the Boy Scouts of America — incorporated on
February 8, 1910, and chartered by Congress in 1916 — is to provide
an educational program for boys and young adults to build character,
to train them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and
to develop personal fitness.
The Boy Scouts of America is the nation's foremost youth program
of character development and values-based leadership training. In
the future, Scouting will continue to:
Offer young people responsible fun and adventure
Instill in young people lifetime values and develop ethical
character as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law
Train young people in citizenship, service and leadership
Serve America's communities and families with its quality
value-based program.
